Jim Paul's meteoric rise took him from a small town in Northern Kentucky to governor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, yet he lost it all--his fortune, his reputation, and his job--in one fatal attack of excessive economic hubris. In this honest, frank analysis, Paul and Brendan Moynihan revisit the events that led to Paul's disastrous decision and examine the psychological factors behind bad financial practices in several economic sectors. This book--winner of a 2014 Axiom Business Book award gold medal--begins with the unbroken string of successes that helped Paul achieve a jet-setting lifestyle and land a key spot with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. It then describes the circumstances leading up to Paul's $1.6 million loss and the essential lessons he learned from it--primarily that, although there are as many ways to make money in the markets as there are people participating in them, all losses come from the same few sources. Investors lose money in the markets either because of errors in their analysis or because of psychological barriers preventing the application of analysis. While all analytical methods have some validity and make allowances for instances in which they do not work, psychological factors can keep an investor in a losing position, causing him to abandon one method for another in order to rationalize the decisions already made. Paul and Moynihan's cautionary tale includes strategies for avoiding loss tied to a simple framework for understanding, accepting, and dodging the dangers of investing, trading, and speculating.

An engaging, inspiring exploration of the surprising value of setbacks—and how we can use them to succeed As an award-winning sports journalist, Sam Weinman has long studied the ripple effects of losing. But as a father of two competitive boys, he struggled to convince them that failing—whether losing a hockey game or bombing a math test—can actually be a critical part of success. So he sought out the perspectives of men and women who have turned significant setbacks into meaningful comebacks—and sometimes even new careers—to illustrate how we can not only overcome defeat but grow stronger from the experience. Blending firsthand interviews and advice from professional athletes, business executives, politicians, and Hollywood stars with expert analysis from leading psychologists and coaches, Win at Losing reveals how renowned figures—from Emmy Award–winning actress Susan Lucci to golfer Greg Norman and politician Michael Dukakis—have prevailed and even triumphed in the aftermath of loss, humiliation, and rejection. In showcasing the ways our most difficult moments can be turned into powerful growth opportunities, this lively and moving guide asks readers to redefine what constitutes success and failure, and offers an essential blueprint for harnessing the power of setbacks to achieve what we want in life.

I personally would like to thank everyone that has purchased and read this book and hope that it has blessed your lives as this journey has blessed mine. If I can help somebody as I pass this way then my living will not be in vain. All too often, we go thru trials in life and some are so shameful we wish to forget them and never mention them. Sometimes we are convinced we are alone in a trial of this magnitude and that surely no one would ever understand this madness. If the devil can convince you of this he has won because his job is to isolate us so that depression takes over or rather as the word tells us to sift us as wheat, One thing Ive learned in the last several years of my life that even though its my story, its for Gods glory. Situations that are shameful, hurtful, no matter what, theres a lesson which in turn is a blessing. Quite often the trial or situation is not even about me, but God allowed me to endure it because he trusts me to share it with someone struggling in the same area and to reach back and pull someone else forward. The devil has often tried to convinced me that its my fault for my trials and something Ive either done wrong or simply that God has turned his back on me and is ignoring me. I know for myself that the only thing God cant do is lie and fail and in his word he says that he will NEVER leave me or forsake me so in that I know the trial is for another reason and not because God has bailed out on me. Ive learned to apply I Thessalonians 5:18 In everything give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. Be Blessed and Be a Blessing and remember to live a life of Purpose and on Purpose, Its yours.Walk in it!!!

In the small town of Dilthon, Wyoming, high-school football is religion and the local football coach, Brad Porter, is god. But Coach Porter is a cruel and unforgiving deity, so fiercely determined to win that it frightens an aging uncle and aunt who were once his surrogate parents. After the death of his aunt snaps the last restraints, Coach Porter drives his vulnerable place kicker, Alasdair Pittman, to suicide. Yet when his recklessness costs his own son his life, Coach Porter plunges into turmoil that no gridiron victory can resolve. Groping his way towards a new life, Coach Porter turns to his war-scarred uncle for guidance--and redirects his energies to a sport devoid of glamour: cross-country running. However, neither Coach Porter nor anyone else in Dilthon ever expected the new sport to attract Alasdair Pittman's brother, Anson, an athlete needing help with far more than his stride. Who will win in this unexpected new contest? And what will winning mean?

Edward L. Mussler was born in Melbourne, Florida. He is a 1986 Melbourne High School graduate. He received his bachelor’s degree in journalism from Troy University (Alabama). He spent nearly ten years in the newspaper industry where he won several deadline writing awards. Although he was born a year after the Bulldogs’ triumphant 1966 season, he grew up hearing stories of Melbourne High’s wonderful championship team. A number of years after leaving the newspaper business and yet still eager to keep writing, he came up with the idea of putting down the vivid accounts of the Bulldogs’ glorious season on paper. He works for Northrop Grumman Corp. in Melbourne, down the street from Melbourne High. He, his wife Tammy, and three children A.J., Trey and Addie live in Melbourne Beach.
